Ruru Homes - 2021 Nelson Weekly/Waimea Weekly Start Up Business Winner
"We are stoked about our award every time we see it, it is such a beautiful recognition for the work our team has achieved over the last year in very difficult times. Entering a new industry market with not much previous knowledge, ending up with an award for your achievements after just being 12 months in business was an incredible motivation and recognition for everyone at Ruru. The feedback that followed, and recognition of this award from the community almost topped that, so we’re still bursting with pride!"
